WEDGE OF DARKNESS I-IV | Charcoal on paper, 19" x 29", 2022.
The title of these works comes from a passage from Virginia Woolf’s To The Lighthouse in which the protagonist sits knitting and contemplating the “wedge-shaped core of darkness” at the bottom of herself. She is being herself by herself and able to go so many places while sitting in her chair knitting. We loved the way she describes this darkness as an almost limitless resource. These drawings were also inspired by what is in-between, marginal, or in the pauses. The drawings trace the space between words and lines on a page.
